OUR JOURNEY

FORLIANCE’s journey began in 1998 with the founding of CO2OL, a non-profit organization dedicated to corporate climate protection. Long before carbon offsetting became a mainstream solution, CO2OL led the way, calculating emissions for products, events, and companies while compensating through impactful forestry projects.

In 2014, we expanded our expertise by founding ForestFinest Consulting GmbH, providing advanced forestry and agroforestry advisory services to a global client base. This included project developers, cooperatives, and investors, all seeking sustainable, nature-based solutions to combat climate change.

Our 2021 rebranding to FORLIANCE united the pioneering visions of CO2OL and ForestFinest Consulting, enabling us to offer comprehensive, all-in-one climate solutions. Today, we guide companies from project concept to carbon offsetting, ensuring impactful, long-term climate strategies.

In 2023, Macquarie Asset Management (MAM)—a global leader in sustainable asset management—acquired a a majority stake in FORLIANCE, bolstering our ability to scale up and make even greater strides in driving global climate action. As a Macquarie-owned company, we are now more equipped than ever to deliver innovative, large-scale nature-based climate solutions.

Let FORLIANCE help you shape a sustainable future—together, we can make a lasting impact on the planet.
